Don't Forget!

Students,

This is a reminder about your drafts, which are due this Tuesday:

  • No slang
  • No announcements ("For my second paragraph, I will begin by saying...")
  • No contractions (don't, can't, didn't, won't)
  • Word count: 500-525

Also, commas must be properly placed! Run-on sentences and comma splices will count off on your grade!

Extra credit: You will earn 15 extra credit points if you attempt to write this paper without using any personal pronouns!

****************************

Thanks to everyone who came out to the book signing! Danya took some pictures, but she didn't get everybody. I don't know where she was when Jo Bo showed up, or Logan, or Nathan! Randi, why didn't I get your picture? Here are the ones I did get!




To those who couldn't make it, there will be more opportunities for extra credit, but probably none quite so fun! :)

Mrs. P ~ sorry I didn't get in the picture! I didn't know we were taking pictures! Danya and I were back in the back of the store talking about music. See you Tuesday.

Mrs. P., i liked joshua harris's book the best, and i could really be pro-waiting or pro-dating. The only real reason i picked pro-dating is cuz...well, i im dating someone now. but i really could be for either side. They both have great points that i agree with.and like i said, Josh Harriss Got on my good side, i liked him alot.

Mrs. P, you can email me the critique at logan@footballkid.net. I would also like to say I completely agree with Holly on all formats.
